In the spirit of ideas worth spreading,
TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events
that bring people together to share a TED-like experience.
At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers
combine to spark deep discussion and connection
in a small group.
These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx,
where x = independently organized TED event.
The TED Conference provides general guidance for
the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events
are self-organized
(subject to certain rules and regulations).
